Yeah you're right. Going into the season I was worried about the depth of the O-line, and what a couple of injuries would do, but noone ever expected the amount of injuries sustained by the O-line, and now after a little bit of time together they are starting to look better (meaning just a little below-average, which is as much as you can expect from a patchwork line). They really have surprised me the past 3 weeks.

That said, I think it is still fairly obvious that we need some young depth on the line to replace our old guys in the next few years, and hopefully next year with Heyer and a few key young additions to our depth, we wont even skip a beat in the event of an injury to a key guy.
